  • ★★★★★National Grid

    These are my second pair of Xena’s and I absolutely love them. They are so lightweight but still offer the protection required for my job. I’m so happy that I found a company that caters specifically to women; I’m a Xena for life !

    I absolutely love these! I wear them almost every day and am considering getting a second pair. I did have an issue with the zipper coming off, but xena was amazing about getting it fixed for me.

    This was my first time placing an order with Xena. I was so excited to receive my order, but upon arrival I realized that one of my boots had damages. I’m definitely not too happy that I have to return and place another order and wait another 7 days and hope that they don’t send me another damage pair. This company should inspect their items before sending them out to avoid situations like this.

    I am very happy with my purchase of Xena Nova EH Safety Riding Boots! I normally am a size 5.5 regular with slim calves. I purchased the size 6.0 with slim calf boot and am very surprised at how well they fit! The packaging was very impressive. I love how the boots are sent in individual dust covers; I appreciate the care. When I first put them on, the heel support was rubbing against my ankle bone (slight discomfort). Within three hours, the boot settled in and are very comfortable. I work in a full production manufacturing plant, and the ladies here were all with complements and wanting the contact information to check out the Xena site. I will defiantly be purchasing other pairs in the coming months! Lastly, I want to give kudos to the Customer Service Department, very helpful and courteous!

    I love these boots! They're my second pair of Xenas, and I went a half size up this time (as recommended). They're definitely more comfortable to wear all day long compared to the smaller size. So easy to go from the office, to the field, and out to dinner after. So many compliments!

    Decent boot for the price. Strongly recommend to wax and seal HEAVILY, especially around the reinforced heel patch. The moment water touches it my foot is soaked. Otherwise, it’s an good all purpose farm and snake boot that shines up nicely.

    After my teenage daughter came home with a bruised foot, I was very concerned about her. I searched for steel toe equine boots and found these. Thank you!

    I love my boots. This is my second purchase from XENA and they are AWESOME. My first pair was gravity safety shoes. I had ordered a size smaller and they were so accommodating in exchanging my shoes. When I saw that they have tall boots for safety shoes, I was so excited. Both my Xena shoes fit great. Thank you so much.

    Awesome boots, somehow the narrow calf (all that was left in my size) still fit!! Wish I could get in black, hoping for a new version to come out!

    I’ve now purchased three pairs of Xena boots since joining a construction management team building a large downtown project. My boots are entirely safe walking the busy job site as well as professional and appropriate attending meetings in our main office. I’ve got the short ones in both brown and black, and just splurged on the knee high ones. I’m also delighted they come in size 5 - so many steel toed boots start at size 6 elsewhere.

    I love how stylish and comfortable they are. We are required to wear steel toes at work and I have had a lot of good comments about them. And it only took about two days of actively wearing them to break them in.

    I've put this boots through winters full of snow, water and mud and the boots are still strong, the only thing they started doing is a squeaky sound when walking but the boot is still strong, I just bought another pair, I love this boots and the designs!

    Bought these to wear at the horse farm I volunteer at. They have been perfect!! I worry less about my toes being bruised or broken if a horse steps on them (because it will inevitably happen). They are comfortable throughout the entire 12+ hour day with minimal soreness/blistering which I assume will subside as they break in more. Love these and will be ordering more styles from Xena in the future :)

    I love these boots. Such soft leather. Zero blisters (which I have never had happen). I have to wear steel toes 24-7 at work and being a senior leader that use to limit my style abilities at work. Most steel toe are boxy and look super bulky. The toe caps would hurt my toes and the backs would chew up my heels. I am a size 8 and ordered the 8.5” from Xena in both pairs I ordered and I am in love. Now all the ladies at work are buying from Xena as well. I love this company, the shoes and the fact that giving us the ability to branch out and further our style choices at while at work is amazing. Thank you! You have a lifetime customer!

    I love these boots, I work outside in Louisiana 10 hours a day on my feet. I walk and stand for the duration of the day. The boots are by far my most comfortable and very feminine without being prissy. They clean up beautifully after a muddy day. #minkoil I did change the insole.

    Please keep making these boots Xena!!! This is my third Xena boot purchase, and my favorite. These boots are impressive in every way; attractive, comfortable, stylish, functional. Finally I learned NOT to size up from my regular boot size, and the fit was perfect. The quality is outstanding. I proudly wear these both at work and on the street. The only real “problem” is they look so awesome people think you aren’t wearing safety shoes when you should be!

    Rough warehouse dealing with recycled plastic. Out warehouse has no heat/ac and these boots are amazing! I got them for winter but I will absolutely be wearing them year round! I got some leather conditioner/protectant for them as well and love them! Once I got them broke in after just a few days they are the most comfortable boots I've ever owned. I've had women's Caterpillar, Justin, Ariat and so many other generic boots and I'll never go back! I got knee high and by the measurements guide they fit perfectly!

    I will say I love the boot but highly upset that they can't keep stock of them. I purchased a week ago and need to exchange. I gambled on a smaller size for wider calf. If it doesn't work, will have to get a refund and settle for my tie on boots and find a way to taylor them for zipper. 😪😪😭

    I absolutely love these boots! They are very comfortable, form to my feet and are easy and comfortable to wear all day. However, they aren’t as waterproof as I would have hoped but I still plan to keep and use them at the vineyard that I work because I do love the boots.

  • ★★★★☆Miller Electric Mfg. LLC

    The boots are amazing. I did go up a size as suggested which was perfect! I do wish the boot height was a little shorter, maybe an inch or two shorter. When I bend my knee the boot hits the back of my knee making it kind of awkward to walk up stairs.

    I'm the production planner and need to be on the shop floor often, these boots keep me warm, protect my feet, and are exactly like my normal footware.

    This company and their boots came highly recommended by a colleague. I haven't had a chance to use these boots outdoors yet, but they are beautifully made, great leather quality, comfortable so far, packaged with much care and the communication throughout the order process and delivery was seamless. These are the perks of purchasing from a small business, the personalized care and service. I highly recommend XENA and their products.

    I cannot express how much I love these boots, it took 20 years of looking and I finally found exactly what I was looking for. Customer for life. The range in sizes especially smaller sizes is something I thought I would never find. I had to actually return my first pair as they were too small, something I have never experienced before. The exchange process was incredibly easy. I finally found a shoe I can wear that is work appropriate, but also I didn’t shock myself or anyone else while wearing them . These have been a go to almost every day since purchasing and I am heartbroken my size in the other color was already sold out or I would have purchased the second pair when exchanging the first pair. Please bring these back and add other colors!!

    These run ridiculously, ludicrously small and apparently are made only for people with pancake-flat arches. 0/10, wish I had not purchased.

    The quality of these boots is fantastic, I want to preface with that. I get nothing but complements when I wear them, they are beautiful and sturdy. My complaint is there is some sort of hard ankle piece that sits under my left ankle, and irritates the tendon there where it’s painful to walk for WEEKS after removing the boot. I’ve tried laying socks, I asked my husband if we could rip it out and he doesn’t think so, I don’t think any amount of breaking them in will wear down the u-shaped support on the exterior of the boot. And because it’s so incredibly painful, I can’t wear them long enough to possibly soften it up or it affects my lifestyle for too long out of fear I will permanently harm my ankle. I really wanted these boots to work out. And I’ve had some bad break in experiences, but I can’t get around this one sadly.

    The heel cup digs into my heel, so make sure to wear thick socks to prevent this. Otherwise very stylish and functional!

    I wore them for two weeks & they continued to be very uncomfortable on my left ankle. my job is very demanding and am on my feet a lot main reason I did not hesitate to pay a high price do to the promising comfort of their shoes. i am less than pleased with the type of customer service coming from this company.

    Omg thank you for having stylish work shoes! I can wear cute clothes again to work without looking like a clunky woman who can’t dress herself. I appreciate the heads up on getting the 1/2 size bigger and the narrow calf was perfect for my chicken legs! Love my boots! Will definitely be buying more shoes from here soon!

    I love my boots, I got it 2 yrs ago when Xena was just new to the market. Although the price was a bit higher compared to the pricing they offered lately but I was happy I got it. It is a very versatile footwear that you can wear from work to riding Harley's. Everyone's asking about it so, I told them where to her it. Thank you Xena! I hope my size will be available soon because I need a pair in different color. Morw power to tour company!
